Abstract
L'invention concerne un applicateur radiofréquence et un procédé de chauffage d'une formation d'hydrocarbures. Dans un aspect d'au moins un mode de réalisation, on décrit un applicateur radiofréquence (RF) linéaire qui comprend une ligne de transmission et un trajet de retour de courant isolé de la ligne de transmission et entourant cette dernière pour créer un conducteur coaxial. Au moins une gaine conductrice est placée autour de la ligne de transmission et du trajet de retour de courant. La ligne de transmission et le trajet de retour de courant sont raccordés électriquement à la gaine conductrice. Une source radiofréquence est configurée pour appliquer un signal sur la ligne de transmission. Lorsque l'applicateur linéaire est actionné, un champ magnétique circulaire se forme, qui crée des courants de Foucault dans la formation, provoquant ainsi l'écoulement des hydrocarbures lourds. L'applicateur améliore la récupération de pétrole sans nécessité d'utiliser de la vapeur.
